Dogara affirms that Vote Buying Has Left Nigerians In an ‘Unmitigated Disaster’ State

Yakubu Dogara, The Speaker of the House of Representatives, has affirmed

that vote buying has left Nigerians in a state of unmitigated disaster.

Dogara said this on Monday, during a public hearing organized by the National Assembly on improving electoral processes in Nigeria.

Dogara said that the nation’s democracy has become stagnant – a situation he believes can only change for the better if sharp practices in elections are eliminated.

He said,



“VOTE BUYING AND OTHER SUNDRY MANIPULATION OF THE ELECTORAL

PROCESS IN NIGERIA, HAS LEFT OUR CITIZENS IN A STATE OF UNMITIGATED DISASTER.

“AS A RESULT, WE HAVE BEEN MARRIED OFF TO A MOB, A MOB THAT RULES US BY THE

EXAMPLE OF THEIR POWER, NOT BY THE DICTATES OF LAW.

“A MOB THAT RULES BY FIAT AS AN INALIENABLE TRUTH, RATHER THAN BY COURAGE.

A MOB THAT ACCEPTS THE STATUS QUO RATHER THAN CHALLENGE IT.

“MOBS DON’T GROW OTHERS, THEY ONLY DESTROY OTHERS IN ORDER TO GROW THEMSELVES.
